Banana Sushi

Sushi gets a whole new look with these easy roll-ups. They’re an energizing snack and work well in your lunch box, too.

Ingredients

4 slices whole wheat bread, crusts removed

2 bananas, peeled and ends trimmed

1/2 cup smooth peanut butter, apple butter or Nutella, whichever you prefer or have on hand

Preparation

Lay two slices of bread on the counter next to each other, slightly overlapping one over the other to create one big, rectangular piece. Press the slices together at the seam and use a rolling pin to gently flatten them.

Gently spread your favorite spread evenly over both of the bread pieces and lay a whole banana in the middle. Carefully roll up the bread around the banana.

Slice each log into six pieces that are 1-1 1/2-inches thick. Repeat with the remaining bread slices, spread and banana and serve.
